Engineering
Companies must be innovative in order to leverage profitable economic growth. Our engineers are connected in global networks, enabling us to develop innovative products. Identifying and evaluating the demands of markets and customers and converting them into new products is the main challenge of
innovation-driven development – and also secures sustainable competitiveness and viability for us and our customers. Our engineers are particularly skilled in discovering trends and developing new materials, manufacturing technologies and customer-specific product and service solutions.
Always remain curious, dare to be different and never be afraid of change
We aim to achieve this goal by engaging in all areas of Research and Development:
Fundamental research
What will tomorrow’s world look like? Our fundamental research focuses on identifying, evaluating and promoting future technologies. The aims – and the basis – of innovation are to constantly review tried and tested materials and processes to make good products even better.
Technological development
When seeking solutions for customer-specific challenges, we are able to draw on fundamental research findings, application-based knowledge and decades of practical experience. We develop and implement technologies to meet the special requirements of our customers.
Pre-development
iwis has adapted its product portfolio to market demands many times in the course of several decades. The aim of pre-development is to pave the way for serial production- and market-driven product development. We put new technologies to the test and examine the practicability of new products, using various procedures and processes to design functional prototypes, which reduces technical risk.
Product and process development
The final step is to merge all previous steps and create a tangible new product or improve an existing product. Discover more about our innovations
Fresh ideas create new prospects
iwis continues to promote closer ties with universities and reputable research institutes, and actively participates in research projects. This ensures a constant transfer of knowledge.
Innovation means not simply inventing and developing, but also successfully implementing new technologies in the market. This is the only way to maintain our successful position as a global systems supplier and continue to create innovative, customer-specific solutions. At iwis, innovation management is an integral part of corporate strategy. Our ideas management department collates and examines ideas from various departments and external partners – further proof that iwis is a company that is constantly “striding ahead”.
